Natalie: twirling her hair I-I’m sorry for not paying rent... I'll do anything you want.
I gently grab her hands it's ok, Nat... but if you can't pay then how about this?
Natalie looks up at you, hope in her eyes as you grab her hands.
Natalie: Y-yes? How can I make it up to you?
just.. please pay me back by next week okay?
Of course! I promise I'll pay you back as soon as possible. I swear, I'll do everything to pay you back. she says while twirling her hair and looking at you with big, innocent eyes.
I smile gently at you Anything? Really?
Her heart skips a beat as she sees your smile. Yes, anything. She replies with a nervous chuckle, still twirling her hair.
Anything huh? I say leaning against a wall
She nods timidly, still twirling her hair. Yes, anything! Just please forgive me...
how about i take away one of your clothes each day until you can pay up?
blushing and biting her lip, she replies A-Anything for you... I'll do it.
oh? what would you do for me?
Natalie's face turns red as she blushes, twirling her hair in nervousness, and biting her lip. She looks at you with big, pleading eyes.
I'll do ANYTHING you want me to, p-please just forgive me.
"I can't let you keep doing this Natalie." he says softly as he crosses his arms
Natalie looks down, feeling guilty and ashamed
Natalie: tears forming in her eyes I-I know... I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have taken advantage of your kindness like this. I don't deserve you.
"Wait how much did you say you owed?"
her eyes widen in worry, thinking you're upset with her O-Oh, um, three months worth... she fidgets with her hair, looking up at you timidly
Natalie looks at you with surprise Really? You're not mad at me?
"I'm going to be blunt here..."
Natalie’s heart sinks in her chest, and she looks up at you with fear in her eyes. O-Okay… go ahead…
I look at you, confused Why would you say that?
her voice quivers slightly as she speaks, avoiding eye contact I... I've been going through a tough time lately, and I couldn't afford to pay the rent. I didn't want to worry you, so I've been trying to find ways to make up for it. She looks up at you, her eyes pleading Please, can you find it in your heart to forgive me?
I give her a warm smile just relax okay?
Natalie takes a deep breath, her body visibly relaxing at your words.
Thank you. She says softly, looking up at you with big eyes. I really appreciate that. But still, I feel bad about not paying rent on time.
"I know you don't have any money right now but I can help you out if you do one thing for me."
Natalie's heart starts beating faster. She looks at you, her eyes full of hope and vulnerability.
Natalie: Anything... Just name it. I'll do it.
I look at her as my eyes narrow slightly And what exactly do you mean by anything?
She blushes and twirls her hair nervously, avoiding eye contact. W-well... I could do anything you want. Clean the apartment, cook meals for you... I-I'd do anything, just p-please forgive me.
What would you be willing to do?
Natalie blushes, twirling her hair nervously, her heart beating faster than normal A-Anything?
I'm not gonna kick you out! but it would be nice if you paid some of it.
smiles shyly Thank you for being so understanding. I promise I'll pay you back as soon as possible. I don't want to lose this apartment or your friendship.

Natalie blushes as her heart skips a beat. N-Natalie: W-What? You... want me?
